Full-length cDNA clones of Peanut stunt virus strain P (PSV-P) were constructed and introduced into Nicotiana benthamiana plants via Agrobacterium tumefaciens. The cDNA fragments corresponding to three PSV genomic RNAs and satellite RNA were cloned into pGreen binary vector between Cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) 35S promoter and nopaline synthase (NOS) terminator employing seamless recombinational cloning system. The plasmids were delivered into A. tumefaciens, followed by infiltration of hosts plants. The typical symptoms on systemic leaves of infected plants similar to those of wild-type PSV-P were observed. The presence of the virus was confirmed by means of RT-PCR and Western blotting. Re-inoculation to N. benthamiana, Phaseolus vulgaris, and Pisum sativum resulted in analogous results. Generation of infectious clones of PSV-P enables studies on virus-host interaction as well as revealing viral genes functions.

The genomic pattern of insertion/deletion variations during rice improvement.
BMC Genomics
December 2024
Rice Research Institute, Guangxi Key Laboratory of Rice Genetics and Breeding, Guangxi Academy of Agricultural Sciences, Nanning, 530007, China.
Background: Rice, as one of the most important staple crops, its genetic improvement plays a crucial role in agricultural production and food security. Although extensive research has utilized single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) data to explore the genetic basis of important agronomic traits in rice improvement, reports on the role of other types of variations, such as insertions and deletions (INDELs), are still limited.
Results: In this study, we extracted INDELs from resequencing data of 148 rice improved varieties.
Arachis hypogaea monoacylglycerol lipase AhMAGL3b participates in lipid metabolism.
BMC Plant Biol
December 2024
College of Advanced Agricultural Sciences, Zhejiang A & F University, Hangzhou, 311300, China.
Background: Monoacylglycerol lipase (MAGL) belongs to the serine hydrolase family; it catalyzes MAG to produce glycerol and free fatty acids (FFAs), which is the final step in triacylglycerol (TAG) hydrolysis. The effects of MAGL on comprehensive lipid metabolism and plant growth and development have not been elucidated, especially in Arachis hypogaea, an important oil crop.
Results: Herein, AhMAGL3b encoding a protein with both hydrolase and acyltransferase regions, a member of MAGL gene family, was cloned and overexpressed in Arabidopsis thaliana.
Lectin Receptors in Primary and Metastatic Cancer Cells.
Asian Pac J Cancer Prev

Department of Pathological Anatomy, Forensic Medicine, Histology, Donetsk National Medical University, Kropyvnytskyi, Ukraine.
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to detect the distribution of different lectin receptors in primary cancer cells as well as in the case of metastasis, as these biomolecules can potentially predict cancer development in certain tissues and systems.
Methods: To detect lectin receptors in tumors, the authors used conjugates of lectins purified by affinity chromatography with peroxidase, and studied their localization in paraffin sections of 12 cases of primary cancer and 33 of its metastases.
Result: In primary cancers and their metastases, there is a distinct mosaicity in the histotopography of individual lectins, especially peanut and soybean lectin.
Genome-wide characterization of pyrabactin resistance 1-like (PYL) family genes revealed AhPYL6 confer the resistance to Ralstonia solanacearum in peanut.

Article Synopsis
- Bacterial wilt (BW), caused by Ralstonia solanacearum, negatively affects peanut yield and quality, with the ABA signaling pathway playing a crucial role in peanut resistance, although its molecular mechanisms are not well understood.
- Researchers identified 18 ABA receptor genes in the peanut genome, focusing on AhPYL6 and AhPYL16, which were significantly activated by stress signals and R. solanacearum infection.
- The study further revealed that overexpression of AhPYL6 enhances resistance to the bacteria by increasing the expression of defense-related genes, indicating a vital role for PYL ABA receptors in plant defense mechanisms.
Origin and evolution of the bread wheat D genome.

Bread wheat (Triticum aestivum) is a globally dominant crop and major source of calories and proteins for the human diet. Compared with its wild ancestors, modern bread wheat shows lower genetic diversity, caused by polyploidisation, domestication and breeding bottlenecks. Wild wheat relatives represent genetic reservoirs, and harbour diversity and beneficial alleles that have not been incorporated into bread wheat.
